I love that we have non-credit ESL classes because it really does make learning English more affordable. Not only that, but students in our non-credit classes make lifelong friends with classmates from all over the world. It really is a fun place to learn, and it makes me feel good when students discover a program at Foothill that makes them excited about learning — beyond learning English!
I am a housekeeping supervisor in one hotel. This is my first quarter here at Foothill College and I want to continue with these classes because it’s very important to me to find a very good job. And, I want to take credit classes in the future. I am very thankful for this program.
